Democracy Policy

Hi Friend, 

Happy National Voter Registration Day! In celebration, I wanted you to be among the first to see my new report, The Power of One Vote.

My new report reveals that many elections and key policy decisions have been shaped by just a handful of votes. For example: In the year 2016 alone, more than 340 state office elections were decided by fewer than 500 votes; of those, more than 85 were determined by fewer than 100 votes.

Read my report to learn how:

• 312 votes cast in one state helped more than 40 million Americans access affordable health care
• A vote margin of 0.41 percent played a hand in the creation of an extremist Supreme Court that stripped Americans of reproductive rights
• 321 votes cast in one state legislative race in Minnesota helped give the state abortion rights, bold action on climate change, voting rights, commonsense firearm regulations, and more

My report also includes interactive charts that you can use to explore hundreds of U.S. House and Senate races that were decided by less than 3 percent of votes cast, and see how just a few votes cast in your state and/or congressional district helped shape the future!

So be sure to check it out and share this report widely with your friends, family, and networks.
